so i started comping a few weeks back, how long does it take to get going? I havent won anything apart from complementary tickets to an antiques fair! Ho and a spam letter saying I won an holiday but that was just a timeshare scam.

I suppose what im asking is, do you kind of find out in august what you won for July ect (dependant on Comp end dates of course)

The mood needs lightening a little so here's the Joke of the Day

Two nuns driving down the road at night and suddenly a vampire jumps out from the roadside and lands on the bonnet of their car.
"Quick" said the passenger nun....."Show him your cross"
So the driver nun wound down the window and screamed "Oi you, get off my f*****g car" !!!!!!!!!!

There's no set limit. Some comps will ring you on the day they finish, others you get a prize out of the blue 3 months later. It might be a good idea for you to have a read through the Comping Guide, as I know this (and a gazillion other things) are covered there

It really varies. Sometimes you might receiving a winning phone call / email within a day or two of the comp closing, or sometimes it might be weeks, even months after. Also sometimes they might not give you any notification that you have won, they might just send out the prize instead.

Keep entering the comps though and the wins will start turning up at some point! As soon as you get one or two proper wins you will be completely hooked on the comps
